According to the families, accused Nagesar sexually abused two 11-year-old boys.
They alleged that after school hours, he would call the children into the restroom and assault them. The accused also threatened the boys to keep silent, warning them of serious consequences if they spoke out.
On August 23, some students witnessed the cook engaging in inappropriate behaviour again and informed their parents, leading to the complaint, police said.
Deputy Superintendent of Police (Northern Range) Vikas Chandra Tripathi said statements of the children and their families are being recorded.
The DSP said further investigation is going on in the case.
